Too many soft passes picked off when we are going forward.

I'm thinking Christe for Ferrante. Manny stays for mine...
Agree Martin but I doubt Ricki will leave his captain on the bench when he needs composure and we look flustered since the penalty (38th to 45th +2) for the last 9 mins.
Agree Royal. Smeltz is holding the ball up a bit much when we are playing quite a lot of quick ball up front there. He is slowing the progression down.

And the Baggie Greens are in the same position as last week.

Damn, we controlled that game beautifully for 40 minutes. Tards were startng to look very vulnerable but they'll be hard to catch now I'm afraid.

Well I'll disagree with some of you cos I don't think that was a soft penalty. I don't think it was a penalty at all. Bullsh*t decision.
Anyway. That's football.
What is really pissing me off is the commentators. Normally I don't mind the Aussie commentators but when Melbourne are invoved, they're atrocious. It's a constant wankfest for 90 minutes. At one point we were attacking and the commentator is bladdering on about Archie going to get a towel to wipe his nose with. Nightmare.
Rant over.

Just saw on the replay that Dodd got away with a very cheeky shirt pull on Hernandez in the area.
Are we trying to concede penalties? Why do we do dumb sh*t like that in our own area?

he has done it all season but our current formation looks to be a much more swifter team atm.

That nick ward shot was Ferrante missing his tackle and then going AWOL and not coming back and marking...did we really sign him for next year?
When was the last time he had a decent game?

Excuse my ignorance but with Mossy moving to Melbourne, where is Theoclitis going?

Unless something has happened that I haven't heard, I actually think Moss will be on the bench at Melbourne with Theo playing.

Jag that penalty was identical to the one Zetter (I think I said Streb earlier) gave Conveny against Newcastle in October. The question is why did Muscat even try doing something like that in the box? If he hadn't tried that challenge, the referee wouldn't have had to make a decision.
That is just seriously, a dumb footballer.

It wasn't a penalty and now we're f**ked.
I was at Four Kings but I came home for the second half.
Cheers ref for ruining my night/weekend.

theo and moss are very similar keepers, not sure thats the smartest signing ever
I have an amazing ability to find my way out of mazes. I'm pathological.

Clitoris is unsigned at the moment. Mitchell Langerak is the current deputy until 2012 and what a capable back up he is.

Slater hates us. The other night he and Harper were banging on about how courageous Adelaide were against us last week. Er, guys, you're talking about a team who took us for nine goals in the two previous games and were a man up with 40 to play. Yeah, so very courageous.

Slater has always hated the Nix. He copped a lot of crap from us last season for his unbiased pro Australian opinions. And for referring to our club being a New Zealand team not a Wellington team.

I'll have to have a trawl to check that one cos I don't remember the Coveney penalty in that way at all. As I said, that's football

Identical not in the style of challenge but the manner of the incident being not a 200% hack down penalty granny could give it.
